How to set a font size in my piercing charts

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

I use a drilling chart on all my part plans to identify their diameters, depth, etc.

They are identified with letters, A, B, C, D, etc., but these famous letters are displayed automatically in a font size of 13 and I would like it to be in 8 automatically.

Are there any solutions on this subject? I've already done some research, but nothing helps.

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Regards Valentin

Hello;

You have to pre-set a drilling table to your liking, then save it as a table model. (Right-click on your table then save-under *... sldholtbt )

Also pay attention to your settings of your Drawings models in the Solidworks properties.

Kind regards.

I think I expressed myself badly in my subject :sweat_smile:

In fact it's not what is in the table my problem, but the size of the font of the marker on the part next to the hole

Hello

Here you have to select the "points" checkbox instead of "units". These are the 2 ways to set the font size under SW

I try to keep it that way on all my next plans to avoid making a manipulation every time.

Yes, that's what I'm doing today, but for each shot I have to select all the piercing marks and change the font size. It would be simpler if it was already at the right size from the beginning.

Thank you!

Edit your template documents (look in Tools, options, file location, document template)
You make a backup of the documents and then you change the font size and you save this template document.
